Resarch
is the route to improvement. As clinic is committed to development there is
always and ongoing research on one or the other issues related to Orthopaedics
and sports. This gives light to new ideas but also puts clinic in league with
all other facilities any where in the world.
There is a ongoing clinical research on the best choice in graft selection for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction
surgery. Anterior cruciate ligament is the commonest ligament injury of the
knee leading to disability & lack of function in the knee resulting in
significant drop in performance & capacity of the knee, There are various
types of grafts that are used to reconstruct this ligament of which Bone
Patella Tendon Bone(BPTB) and hamstringe are two main types with each having
benefits and disadvantages. There is a ongoing research & study of patients
operated by the lead surgeon of the clinic where in both type of grafts are
chosen randomly to compare the two grafts and to reach the result as to which
one is better and why.
